I am aware of the possibility to turn the contribution file (contrib.php) on and off, but when it is turned off, you can’t contribute any news unless you are logged on as administrator.
Because of that I need to password protect my contribution file via .htaccess and .htpasswd, so only users with a password from me can contribute news, stories etc.
I am pretty sure that the mentioned password protection should work, but to be sure I am asking in forehand.
This kind of password protection use to be good, and I can imagine this is the only way to pretend that phpWebLog has different user levels. Or am I wrong?

No, that would work just fine. That's about all you can do until the accounts/permission are in place.

Try:
AuthType Basic
AuthName Contrib
AuthUserFile ContribUsers
require validuser

AuthUserFile contains the user name and the htpasswd hashed password.
